[Flashcoders] SEO, flash site, url and text in this movie tags

2006-01-11 Thread Martin Weiser

Hello,

does these tags really work for search bots?
!-- URL's used in the movie--
!-- text used in the movie--

even if not generated by flash, because links and texts are mostly dynamic, 
so i suggested to put these links to the tags by some server site, php for 
example.

will it work for indexing?

thanks
Martin

No way. Google is way too smart these days. White text on a white 
background, meta tag text, text in comments, text anywhere a user 
can't read it -- Google ignores it all. Maybe it would work on other 
search spiders, but if you're not convincing Google, what's the point?


The only way to get a good rank in Google is to have a lot of clearly 
visible, highly relevant, informative text, ideally with links to and 
links from reputable and well-traveled sites. Anything else is just a 
scam, and even if it works one month, it'll fail the next time Google 
rearranges their algorithms.


Didn't I hear once that there was some way of letting Google search 
inside Flash files, though? Maybe someone else knows a better way of 
getting your Flash-based site ranked.
